As I continue in my lifetime quest for good thoughts, it has occurred to me that there is a whole different category of unrecognized thoughts, specifically the thoughts you think towards yourself. And, as I continue to prove my maxim to myself, that life will be infinitely better by choosing only good thoughts, it appears…
There is nothing like a birthday to give you some pause in order to consider what happened over the course of the past year.
